One Last Trip

 


When Emily’s dad, Tony, told her he was taking one last massive motorbike trip, she was a little worried. He was well into his 70s, and she thought it would be dangerous. So she suggested asking Luke, her brother, if he would swap bodies with him for the trip.


Tony asked Luke, but he refused. So instead, he decided to swap bodies with Emily.


“I’ll be back in a month, Emily. Don’t worry—I won’t do anything dangerous,” said Tony as he started up the engine and tore off.


Emily couldn’t believe she was in her dad’s old body. She hadn’t expected him to ask her about swapping bodies, and she was about to say no. But then her mother reminded her how much her father was looking forward to this trip—so she agreed.


She just wanted him to be happy. And he was—as he drove down the open highway with his daughter’s long hair flying in the wind.


“He didn’t even have a helmet on!” shouted Emily as she realized what he’d done.

“I’m dead,” she thought, as she went back into the house.
